Hi,
 
Been reading "Complicated Game" by Andy Partridge (XTC), and it is mostly a bunch of interviews talking about a few songs ... none of them the ones you like ... where's a Box of Paints? Where's This World Over?
 
But there are some fun things, and he has a kick'y humor. That would explain his penchant for the band using a KICK, in the drums, in the most unusual places, but it works. 
 
Between this book and Robert Wyatt's, I think I have found two insaknicanicks that I can relate to!
 
Very enjoyable read and the guy KNOWS music and its history. Btw, skiffle2 is the punk era!
 
Hahahahahaha!!!!

Thanks for the heads up.  I like good books.

The title says fun, not good.

A good book is *Logic* by W. Quine (is he related to Hector?).  A fun book is *Complicated Game* by Andy Partridge (is he related to Keith?)

An interesting book is Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking (2005) by Malcolm Gladwell.

Joe Jackson's biography is a fun and interesting look at his musical career, I really enjoyed it. 
 
David Byrne's "How Music Works" doesn't fully live up to its title but is nonetheless a very interesting book about, erm, how music works, as well as a lot of cool stuff about Talking Heads and that era in general. 
 
Andy Partridge has been through some bad times since a klutz in the studio triggered a snare sample through his cans at full volume and gave him raging tinnitus. I think he was doing hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy for it at one point. 

Any good books for Dyslexics like me?

Sure, ones with only pictures.  Personally, I like some of the nature books, ones about Frank Lloyd Wright's Houses and those about Escher Puzzles.
 
Or, depending on your goals with that question, perhaps a book on why people don't like trolls?
